Operating Method
1. Remove the 2 screws at the bottom of the front cover.
2. Grasp the right and left sides of the front cover，
raise it a little and then take it off. Press the ON/OFF
switch beside the condenser. The light will be on. The
ice maker will startworking automatically and feeding
water.
3. After the first feeding of the water, the machine will
automatically go to the ice making stage, and the sound
of water spraying will be heard.
4. Ice will be harvested to the ice storage bin. When
the storage bin is filled to the point that the ice-full sensor is
covered, the ice maker will automatically stop working. The machine will
restart making ice once the storage bin is less than full.
5. Excess water will flow through the drain outlet at the back of the machine and empty into
the floor drain.
IMPORTANT:
• Although the unit has been tested at the factory, due to long-term transit and storage,
the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
• Never turn the water supply tap off when the icemaker is working.
How the Machine Makes Ice
There are two distinct cycles: freeze and harvest.
During the freeze cycle, water is sprayed against the evaporator surface.
In the harvest cycle, the ice is released and water enters the machine. A complete cycle
takes about 30 minutes, but is dependent on temperature and operating conditions.
Freeze: During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant, the fan motor
is blowing air, and the water pump is circulating water. When the batch of ice has been
fully formed, the ice maker stops the freeze cycle and begins to harvest the ice.
Harvest: During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but the water pump has
stopped. Two other components have been energized: the hot gas valve and the water inlet
valve. These two valves open and warm up the freezing surface, allowing the cubes to fall
into the bin. The freeze cycle will restart when all the cubes have been harvested.
